Councilman Sam Smith. left, and Councilwoman Mrs. Phyllis Lamphere were among the pickets at City Hall yesterday. Virtually all were protesting the Pike Plaza urban-renewal plan. Mrs. Lamphere, who supports the urban-renewal plan, was in a sense picketing pickets. At center was Victor Steinbrueck, architect and a leader of Friends of the Market, an organization backing preservation of the Pike Place Market area. Eighty to 100 persons picketed the building yesterday noon. Friends of the Market contends urban renewal would destroy the market’s spirit and result in mistreatment of market-area residents and businessmen. Some city officials contend the market is in disrepair and cannot be saved without the invest-ment of public money. (4/2/1971)
